New Online Wedding Community Blossoms

WeddingWire announces the launch of BridalBuds.com

BETHESDA, MD – December 10, 2008 – WeddingWire, the nation’s leading wedding technology company, is excited to announce the launch of BridalBuds, a new blog community for engaged couples. BridalBuds uniquely combines WeddingWire’s innovative online community with real wedding experiences, wedding planning tips, DIY projects, and wedding related contests. BridalBuds is available immediately nationwide at www.bridalbuds.com.

“We wanted to provide engaged couples with a fun and interactive community to discuss all things wedding,” said Megan Hermeling, WeddingWire’s Community Manager. “This site gives brides and grooms the opportunity to hear firsthand accounts of the joys and frustrations of planning a wedding.”

This new community is designed to provide readers with thoughts and tips from current engaged couples as they go through the exciting, but stressful, experience of planning their wedding along with advice from newlyweds who have previously been in their position.

Lily Lee is an excited bride-to-be who has been busy planning her October 2009 wedding. “As a featured blogger on the site, I can’t wait to share my wedding planning stories and ideas. I want to inspire other brides to be creative and have fun with this once in a lifetime event!”

Lee, along with several other brides and newlyweds from across the country, make up the narrative voice of the BridalBuds blogging community. By inviting readers into the intimate details of their wedding, these bloggers serve as a source of inspiration, imagination, and conversation for other engaged and newlywed couples.
